This cow is in milk. It is clearly not fit to replace tractors left without fuel; a woman clasping hands at thought of losing milk with which she could add in soup of nettle or orach, the only food for those who must feed the Army; a kilted girl of 10 or 11 years old is bravely trying to hold a plough down in a rib... Well, Russian women caught it in those years. And it was deeply in heartland! In thousands miles from front line! Oh, Russia! «Thou art so pitiful,
Poor, and so sorrowful,
Yet of great treasure full,
Mighty, all-powerful...»
Bur first of all - absurd!
